Drums, Girls & Dangerous Pie

This book is about a boy, 13 years old, called Steven. He has mouse-brown cowlick-y hair, glasses that are about an inch thick, and braces that look like he tried to swallow a train wreck. (: He plays the drums in the All-Star Jazz band, has a crush on the hottest girl in the school and is constantly annoyed by his 5 year old brother, Jeffery.

One day, there was a little accident Steve caused to his brother. Few days later, Jeffrey is diagnosed with leukemia. And Steven's world is turned upside down. He is forced to deal with his brother's illness and the sudden change of everything. Having his mom quit her job as a teacher to take care of Jeff, having to deal with all the nightmares of Jeff's death, having to face his friends and teachers with a huge secret, having to run out of money... The next minute, he finds himself in a MAHOOSIVE family crisis.

I really, Really, REALLLLLLY recommend this book to everyone. It gives your heart this tingly feeling (: Family issues will vanish after reading this book. It is very touching, and an extremely funny book. It is really worth reading. Give it a try, and you will love it (:
